McLean Care Mackellar welcomes new general manager Sarah Wade to oversee Gunnedah aged care services

McLean Care took charge of the previously named Mackellar Care Services in Gunnedah last year.

Now, they are welcoming a new general manager to the community in Sarah Wade, who was previously based in Inverell.

As the McLean Care Mackellar GM, Ms Wade will oversee the future direction of aged care services in Gunnedah, as well as the operational management of the organisation's Gunnedah residential aged care facility.

"I'm excited to be joining the Gunnedah community, having lived in Inverell for years," she said.

"Of course, it comes with a mix of nervous and happy energy.

"Moving to a new town, getting used to new schools, the Gunnedah vibe and of course new coffee haunts.

"Both my children are looking forward to the new adventures and memories we will make here."

Ms Wade began her employment with McLean Care in 2005 and has held various nursing and supervisory roles within the organisation.
